Obverse description Printed in olive-green and brown on pale paper, the obverse is framed by an ornate guilloche border with numeral "1" repeated in each corner. The bank title "BANCO NACIONAL ULTRAMARINO" is set in bold letterpress across the upper portion, below which the serial number and denomination "$1" appear flanked by repeated serial numerals. A cursive promise-to-pay text in Portuguese occupies the centre field, supported by a fine radiating underprint, with the place and date "Lisboa de Janeiro de 1910" and three manuscript signatures below, each accompanied by a role designation.
